Dude rolls a stop sign.
Cops think he looks like he's "clenching his butt" which of course means he's a drug mule with a keister full of coke.
They get a search warrant (!?!?!?!) valid for one county, for a few hours.
They can't get the hospital in that county to probe the dude, so they take him to a different county (voiding the warrant) after the time specified (further voiding the warrant).
He gets, among other things: multiple fingers jammed up his anus, multiple enemas, and finally complete sedation and a colonoscopy. No drugs were found.

Setting aside how horrific it is that all it takes to get a judge to ok your anal violation is a cop saying "Gosh, he seems to be standing kinda funny" these cops and doctors were acting on a non-valid warrant. Wrong time, wrong place. They (should) have no legal protection for their actions as they were clearly violating the law. Now, if a non-cop were to kidnap someone at gun point and repeatedly shove things up their ass, you might think that they would be charged with some crimes. I eagerly await the no doubt appropriate charges that will be brought against these "bad apples" who "in no way represent most cops" etc etc.

In another isolated incident, the TX trooper who digitally raped two women in a similar yet even less sanitary search has been reinstated. She was just following orders like a good little cop. How many "isolated incidents" does it take to make a trend?

The title though should be more like "Don't clench your buttocks around cops who might be located really close to a border rife with illegal contraband."

I wonder if the law is even clear about what qualifies as "clenching"? Most every traffic stop i've been involved in, the cop usually insists that i clench my steering wheel. Hell, if i clench my teeth while being tazed will they obtain a warrant to remove my dental fillings and search my molars?

The police can do whatever they want, whenever they want, to very nearly whoever they want. Asserting your rights usually gets logged as "resisting". If you're lucky someone will be around to catch it on video.

That guy needs a team of good attorneys to sue everybody involved in that whole escapade; the cops, judge, doctors, and hospital. All of them.

On the side topic, I had a friend who could throw up on command. It got him out of a lot of big tests in grade school. Test were handed out, the room would be quiet, then BLUURRCH and the sound of vomit hitting linoleum. Nothing like taking a test with the stench of cafeteria food permeating the air and the janitor spreading that red sawdust crap around.

The same guy could give himself a bloody nose and force blood tears out his eyes. It scared the nuns.

This is a horrendous incident, based on what I've read here in this thread. But there are 700,000 cops in the USA according to a quick Google search. I think you're fairly safe in thinking that the sort of actions discussed here are unrepresentative of the majority, statistically speaking. Anybody who draws conclusions about cops in general based on the actions of a tiny proportion of them is not really thinking critically.
